1953 Map of Fort Reno

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Bozeman Trail cuts a diagnostic path through this Wyoming landscape, marking a legacy of western migration and military presence in Johnson County. At the heart of this 1953 survey is the site of Fort Reno and the nearby Mc Kinney Military Res, both designated as abandoned or historical locations by the time of mapping. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Powder River and a network of draws including Jepson Draw and Reno Draw. The human geography of the era is represented by a series of isolated outposts such as the Reculusa Ranch, Z L Bar Ranch, and the Urruty Ranch. Evidence of an earlier frontier economy is visible in several sites already marked as abandoned, including the Robinson Ranch and Garrett Cow Camp, showing the shifting nature of livestock operations in this arid region.
